Reviews for Luna Trattoria in Mendocino, CA
Two of us went for dinner on a Wednesday evening. Service was very slow, it took 20 minutes for someone to stop by and take a... drink order. We ordered minestrone soup, caprese salad, the house steak and cioppino. The minestrone soup was bland and wasjust old vegetables. No pasta or beans. The caprese was ok but under seasoned, just slices of tomato and mozzarella with basilbut almost no olive oil, salt or pepper. The house steak was almost inedible, swimming in salty gravy. The cioppino was the onlydish we enjoyed. Dinner for two with one glass of wine each was about $130 with tip. Around 9pm one of the staff members, ormaybe an owner, a woman, sat down at one of the tables nearby and watched loud TV on her phone while eating her dinner with herfingers. Very disrespectful to her customers. Read more

Can I please give it 10?s? Ah-maze-ing!!! Most probably the BEST Italian food I've ever had by God's grace! You can see them... make the fresh pasta! For a moment you would think that you're in a coastal town in Italy! And the service was fantastic! MamaMia, Bellissimo e Meraviglioso! Grazie mille! Read more
Had a great dinner a couple of weeks back at this restaurant. It?s pretty packed for my dinner time slot at 5. Lots of diners... placing their orders when we arrived. We had a great minestrone soup and 2 pasta dishes for the night. The soup wassurprisingly light, compared to those I had elsewhere. My pasta had prawns and steak, both were juicy and well prepared. Thepasta was really tasty! Do pop by for dinner if you are in town! Read more
There is a long but easily walkable straight cute path from the road to the restaurant. Lovely little walk but a wheelchair... might have challenges if self propelled. There is inside seating on the main floor and upstairs. There is also seating on theoutside balcony and bottom backyard area. When we went there was seating at 5pm and 7pm with the kitchen closing around 8pm. Weenjoyed our steak and pasta. Fun wine selection with local options. It was expensive but not outrageous for a nice date night.Spent around $127 for two people: appetizer, 2 meals, 2 glasses on wine, 1 dessert. They even provided a complementaryLemoncello shot for us both! We had a lovely time and will visit again. Read more
Cannot rave enough. The staff was super accommodating at squeezing us in during a limited time period. Every step of the way... they were both helpful and attentive. Wine-wise we enjoyed both the super Tuscan and Sangiovese. The food though reallyimpressed. Every item was boasting with flavor, even the sides (the asparagus might have been the best that I ever had). Thecarbonara pasta, the calamari, the chicken, all of it was delicious and plentiful enough that we took a little home. As ansnobbish New Yorker, this place truly met the mark on good Italian cuisine. Read more
The place is gorgeous, I loved the little path to the actual restaurant. I am sure the outdoor seating would have been... beautiful, but it had rained so it was closed. We were sat right away, but the food took forever. The waiters were superfriendly, and the ambiance was great but the food was frankly underwhelming. I really wanted to love it, and perhaps it was thedish I chose but it could have been better. Read more
Luna was the perfect place to have a birthday celebration for my amazing mom. The outside space was magical, the food to die for... and the service, well, we were treated like family. Thank you Jessica, Michelle and Elijah. We will be back soon. Read more
